You know someone that is a mad chocoholic that will stop at nothing to get all the chcolate in the world. Is it the same person that told us when we were teens that it gave us pimples? Is it maybe my mom who used to tell us not to drink Pepsi and popcorn together cause they would explode in our stomach. It took us a few years to figure out she drank the soda and ate popcorn without any problems while we were drinking Kool aid. I don't know Linda, it sound like a diabolical(sp?) plot to get all the Pepsi and chocolate from you. What are your thoughts on this?
